Meet Rachael
- Occupational Therapist
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
I am 29 years old and currently work as an occupational therapist in local public schools. I have been babysitting/nannying since I was 12 years old and also worked in a private home daycare during college. I am comfortable with children of all ages and have extensive experience providing childcare for multiple children as well as those with a variety of special needs. I am first aid and CPR certified. I am passionate about working with and teaching children both in my career as an occupational therapist and for the children I babysit. As I work the school calendar, I typically look to provide childcare part time during the summers and the school year.
